Shahi Palace Jaisalmer
Near SBBJ Bank
phone: -
This hotel is absolutely gorgeous. Made out of sandstone and decorated with taste, this hotel has a fantastic roof terrace with a view of the citadel city. I preferred staying outside of the citadel because it's less crowded and noisy (It is about 5 minutes walk to the entrance). The brothers there are extremely friendly and will take pains in helping you with whatever request you might have. They will even give you a bed to sleep on if you arrive by the 5AM train from Jodhpur, and they have also offered us a free taxi pick up from the station. Really good after a rough trip!. Only slightly negative point I would mention is food: service is slow and prices are steep for Jaisalmer. But that is definitely a minor point as this hotel was the best hotel I've stayed during my trip to Rajasthan in November 05.

Our stay at The Shahi Palace got off to a great start with the pre dawn pickup from the train station. We were then given a room in which to nap, until a more civilized hour when we were given a tour and choice of available rooms. Our room was very nice AND comfortable. The desert wind and the view of the fort made each ... read more »

I would consider taking another trip to Jaisalmer just to relax at these set of hotels (they are a string of guesthouses designed like heritage hotels, all owned by brothers). This is probably the nicest budget hotel I've ever stayed at, and I've stayed at many in Europe and India... finally, someone gets that it doesn't take ... read more »

Just finishing my stay at Shahi Palace and after having been at other hotels in Rajasthan this place was like a breath of fresh air.
There is a range of prices so be sure to ask to see ther rooms based on your budget (from 350 to 1500). The fort view is amazing at night and it's actually more ethical to stay outside the fort ... read more »

We got their expensive room at the front of the hotel and it was so pretty and worth it. We had a view of the fort. And the view from the rooftop restaurant is fantastic as well. Rooms can feel a bit small, but they are clean and nicely decorated. In addition, the staff are very friendly and helpful. We also went for their desert ... read more »

We really enjoyed our stay there. The rooms aren't huge but nicely decorated and clean - ask for one with a fort view. The roof terrace is great and we found the food to be pretty good - service is quite slow, but then it is in a lot of places! The brothers are great and go out of their way to make your time in Jaisalmer ... read more »

We enjoyed our stay in Hotel Shahi. It was a lovely hotel, with a great rooftop garden/restaurant. Loved the window seats. Our room was nice. No window - which for Rs 850 is a bit strange - but at least our sleep wasn't interrupted by the outside noise.
We were hesitant to book the camel safari - but did it anyway. It ... read more »
